[AG-TECH] Work Around for OpenSSL dependancey problem on RH 9

I ran into the same problem trying to install under Redhat 9. The
solution was to snatch Redhat's patch for pyOpenSSL and apply it to the
pyOpenSSL_AG tarball:

cd /tmp
wget
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/rawhide/1.0/SRPMS/SRPMS/pyOpenSSL-0.5.1-7.src.rpm
wget 
rpm -ivh
pyOpenSSL-0.5.1-7.src.rpmhttp://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/fl/research/accessgrid/software/required/SRPMS/pyOpenSSL_AG-0.5.1-1.src.rpm
rpm -ivh pyOpenSSL_AG-0.5.1-1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
tar zxvf pyOpenSSL_AG-0.5.1.tar.gz
cd pyOpenSSL_AG-0.5.1
patch -p1 < ../pyOpenSSL-0.5.1-openssl097.patch
rpmbuild -ba pyOpenSSL.spec

(wait...wait...)
rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/pyOpenSSL_AG-0.5.1-1.i386.rpm

Done! I reran the install.sh script from the AccessGrid distribution,and
everything went smoothly.

Here is the Redhat patch:
